Bullion Stitch
Also known as: Roll stitch
Yarn wrapped many times around the hook and pulled through in one go, making a coiled, rope-like stitch. Used for flowers and decorative motifs.
How to Bullion Stitch
1. Wrap the yarn around the hook 7 to 10 times, loosely and evenly.
2. Insert hook in the stitch, yarn over and pull up a loop.
3. Yarn over and pull through ALL the wraps and loops, easing them off one at a time if needed.
4. Ch 1 to secure.
💡 Pro Tips
A hook with a straight shaft (not tapered) makes this much easier. Hold the wraps with a finger as you pull through.
